Another "me too". I connect via a GPRS Bluetooth modem, so I have no hope of configuring it via the GUI to placate NetworkManager.

It's important to note that this ruins `prism` completely. When a Prism application is started it checks whether you're online using this method, and when it finds that you're not, suggests unchecking File > Work Offline. Of course, Prism applications don't have a File menu...

Is there any kind of workaround available? I will quite happily wait patiently for a proper fix, but in the meantime I'd like to be able to work online. :-)
